ADVERTISING DOLLAR WILL GAIN IN 1932 NEW YORK, Dec. 8 (VP) Tho board of directors of the Advertising Fed eration of America announced Mon day that a national survey it has con ducted indicates the 1032 advertising dollar will bring better results than at any time during the past two years. Gilbert T. Hodges, president of the organization, said the survey shows a growing confidence In 1932 merchan dising possibilities. "Check-up of 102 large companies showed that those firms which in creased, their advertising in 1930 over 1929 made a 68 per cent better profit comparison than those which decreas ed it," the report states. "Those same firms Increased their lead still fur ther in 1931." - President Hodges pointed out that a recent analysis of seventy large cities found that appreciable business recovery has been under way for some months in the cities where newspaper advertising has been tho heaviest. Irrigation Relief Will Be Studied WASHINGTON. Dec. Q (VP) Sen ator Thomas, Republican, Idaho, Mon day called a session of the irrigation and reclamation committee for Thurs day, morning to study methods of fi nancial relief for hard pressed irriga tion districts in western states. Thomas said he expected the pos sibility of an outright moratorium on tho districts' debts to the government for reclamation work would, bo dis cussed. "V .- Tho debts total millions, but offic ials of the reclamation bureau could 'notgtvV an 'estimate of the amount. Under tho bureau's policy, the cost of reclamation projects is repaid over a number of years.

J "Soft" X-Rays Reveal Crystal Structure of Man's Skeleton By Howard W. Wnkesiee (Associated Press Science Editor) ST. LOUIS W) Thcltfcoft" X-ray j rovcals that every man has' two skcls-t. tons, the second and Invisible crystal structure within his bones. "Soft" X-roys lie between light and ordinary X-rays. By slanting them through bones at all angles Sterling B. Hendricks of the bureau of chem istry and soils of Washington, lias completed a long sought picture of the crystal skeleton, lie reported the studies to the Radiological society of North America. The crystal skeleton is the non living portion of bones, a lattice of substances mostly mineral which thread tho uones. Dr. Hendricks studies show how the minerals are arranged and explain more ' clearly than herctoforo Just why substances like lead and arsenic get Into tho bones. Once there they servo os po tential stores of poison. The bono crystals normally a,ro made up mostly of- calcium joafbotH.: phosphorus, hydrogen and oxygen. Those elements aro combined Into fairly largo sized building "bricks" tof crystalllno form. Lead and arsenic, Dr. Hendricks finds, have the right sizes and tho right electrical forces to substltuto easily for certain of the regular "bricks" forming the bono crystals. Substances which do not attack tho bones so readily are kept out partly because they do not "fit" so well. Lead readily displaces tho calmlum containing "bricks." Magnesium and soda also fit well in ploco of calcium, explaining why these two aro some times detected in bones in extra qual ity. Arsenic Is tho substitute "brick" J.

Tho oxygen bricks are 1 somewhat easily displayed by : those : containing the element flourlne, a yellow gas. Thess bone building bricks are not as small aa the geometrically arranged atoms forming many crystals, but are bigger- aggregations of matter. - pnly six hogs wero found In Bro ward county Fla., farm census reports TT-.

With that ho hoaded down tho road which tho Prostons had taken the preceding' day;. Before . Rock 1 was far out of town he had as-. , certalned his horse was a fast walker and had an oasy trot.

"Easy, It you will stand long hours an' poor wages. Preston pays less than any rancher hereabouts." "How much?" queried Rock, a3 It It was important. "Forty, with promise of more. But no puncher ever stlck3 long enough to got more." l" "What you mean by easy?" "Preston Is always hard up fer riders. Reckon he's only got a couplo beside his sons.
